Eeee Bentley. New money cars for new money people. Think Katie Price. Expected better from Ducati (although im not sure why).
Suppose it'll appeal to the new money Bentley owner (Footballers etc.) that wouldn't otherwise have bought a bike but will make an exception for this as it's full on Instagram...
Ya, Bentley are part of the VAG group. To be fair I think they saved Bentley and certainly helped improve the overall quality of their vehicles. If you ever get the chance, i can recommend a tour of the Bentley factory in Crewe. It's a mind blower! REALLY skilled craftsmen!
Starting to think my money will be going somewhere else for my next bike. Ducati are just chasing the easy and gullible money.
Diavel and Bentley? It doesn’t seem a great fit to me. A better fit from within the VAG group would be creating a special edition by taking one of the Ducati off road bikes and linking it with the Audi Dakar team? They could create new a desert racer!
BTW... if you are miss watching motorcycle racing the Dakar starts 5 January 2024 https://www.dakar.com
Absolutely! That veneer workshop is incredible! It's like a museum of rare woods! All the staff we met were very knowledgeable and super friendly. Amazing factory!
Looking forward to the Bentley Diavel with leather diamond stitched seat and oak veneer tank inserts. Surely there’s brands more suited to Ducati within VAG. Bugatti ? Porsche?
